Publisher's summary

Are you broke? Are you drowning in debt and have no idea how to escape the debt trap? Have you ever thought that there needs to be a class called “Life” where someone teaches basic financial principles?

In this comprehensive book written in a humorous, down-to-earth, easy-to-understand language, you will learn why some people get ahead in life while others are either just scraping by or falling behind.

The American dream will not be handed to you. It is there. You just have to grab it. You must navigate financial challenges, question preconceptions, and make life choices that increase your chances for success.

This audiobook is a must-listen for every age group. Teenagers will learn how to start life on the right foot. Young adults will learn how to get out of debt, and older adults will learn how to provide a prosperous future for themselves. This book lays out a step-by-step guide to serve as your road map to financial independence.

Good read and informative

A good handbook to use for understanding retirement and savings and investment strategies that work. Not a get rich book just a conservative sound investment information.

Good for beginners and intermediate

I am not brand new to the finacial independence concept but I am far from an expert. This book had things I wish I would have known about years ago we I began my journey to finacial independence. It also gave new a few new ideas I didn't think about before. I would highly recommend this book to anyone looking to improve thier finacial situation, whether you are already on the right track or not. Worst case scenario is you get reaffirmed that you are on the right track. Best case is you learn something that improves your situation.

Solid advice

This book presents all of the basics in an interesting, effective new way. Even though he hounds the basics, he does so in an intelligent manner that maintains interest so you easily glean new information!

Overall Good Read

This book had a lot of really good information. I would strongly recommend for someone just starting out in life or someone looking to turn around their financial situation. If you already have your financial house in order, you will likely have heard most of the information before.

With that said I did pickup some nuggets of information like new ways to leverage an HSA, Trusts etc.

There is a nice summary at the end of the book that outlines the contents, but save that for last, and listen to the details.

The author / narrator has a pleasant and light way of presenting the information.

Great read

Grab the dream is better than a Harvard Diploma. It’s one of the best explanations I’ve ever got on insurance, taxes, Wall Street and so much more. I’m definitely getting a hard copy to consume all this goodness once again.

This should be taught in schools and at home!

The knowledge passed on in this book should be an essential part to every single human's upbringing! I know this more for an American audience, but excluding those chapters the remaining knowledge should be absorbed by everyone! 100% recommended!

Time well spent

I'm on a continuous journey to learn more about generational wealth, so the more I learn the more I can share with my family. This is a great addition to that journey. Thank you for writing this book and sharing your knowledge.
